If you spend all day at the computer as I do then snacking is extremely hard to resist. I spend my day blogging, perhaps you do too and part of the day for me is getting my hit of caffeine. When I say Coke I am mean any caffeinated soda drink, diet or otherwise.

Here is why I want to give up. Read More →

Infinite Information fatigue

We operate the most complex machines around, our brain.

How do you deal with the fact that there is an infinite amount of information available to us with a few mouse clicks and we only have a finite amount of time.

First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they were pregnant. They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can, and didn’t get tested for diabetes. Read More →

Something other than your consciousness is handling the task. Your subconscious is automatically taking care of all the different processes needed to walk without thinking. Read More →

Blogging is not hard, it’s bloody hard. You have to write and do stuff. Coherent thought has to be followed through to a conclusion.

Here are 8 ways to make you a better blogger.

Improve the headline.
Make your title shout out to your audience, don’t try to call to everyone. Be specific, tailor the headline to the people who are going to be most interested in your post.
Keep it snappy.
Make it interesting. Dog bites man is not news, man bites dog is.

Rich Schefren talks about visitor value in his latest blog post.

I must confess, I do not give visitor value as much attention as I should. Mostly I am pleasing myself with only a fleeting thought about the people who will be reading my various websites and blogs.

Rich talks about establishing a benchmark for visitor value, although he does not go into specifics of how to implement such a system he highlights on the benefits of such a system. Selling the sizzle not the sausage I think they call it. Read More →

Having signed up for any email newsletters about affiliate marketing, I have decided to cut the list down. It’s an interesting excercise though, you soon realise who offers real, useful, non duplicated information and who just wants to give you sales pitch after sales pitch for products you don’t really want or need.

People who I will keep getting emails off include
Mike Filsaime
Mark Joyner
Perry Marshall
Rosalind Gardner
Dan Kennedy
Michael Gray
Andre Chaperon
John Carlton
Russell Brunson
Andrew Wee
